Applesauce as a fat and egg swap
Applesauce is a baker's favorite for lightening recipes — about 255 g per cup. It replaces oil or butter at roughly 1:1 (keep some fat for the best texture), and ¼ cup stands in for one egg, adding moisture and binding without leavening. Use unsweetened so you control the sugar.
Because it adds moisture and little structure, applesauce works best in muffins, quick breads and brownies rather than delicate cakes.
